On May 19, Niu Mengen, Tao Longrong, and Ji Lianyun held a joint meeting at the Shancheng Hotel to sign a cooperation intention and jointly participate in the bidding for a 260-acre plot of land on the north bank of the Fuhe River.

On the 21st, Qiu Jinhui went to Guangzhou, but failed to see Tao Longrong. A vice president of Shancheng Real Estate received her with tough and impatient words, leaving no room for accommodation.

In the middle of the night, Qiu Jinhui rented a modified Wuling van and took Qiao San, who had broken an arm, back to the mountain city.

Municipal Construction/Wenyang Architectural Joint Office.

Qiao San had gauze wrapped around his head and a plaster splint on his right arm. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy look on his face.

He shot a wild boar near Taojiagou, and the villagers said it was their free-range black pig.

He was beaten from the mountain to the foot of the mountain by a group of mountain hunters.

Beside them were Xia Wuyue, Qiao Jianwei, Gou Jianyong, and Luan Dayu, standing or sitting.

Smoke billows.

In the inner room, Xia Wenyang dialed Tao Longrong's mobile phone, while Qiu Jinhui stood beside him.

"Brother Tao, what's going on? This is such a big misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding? Xia Wenyang, when I was in the martial arts world in my old days, I still believed that one person would not bring harm to his wife and children. Isn't business so bottomless now? You don't have a wife or children?"

"Dudu~"

The call was hung up directly from the other end.

Xia Wenyang's face was ashen, his temples were pounding, and he was so humiliated that he wanted to rush out and beat Qiao San and his son Xia Wuyue half to death.

Only he, his wife Qiao Qinqin, assistant Qiu Jinhui, nephew Qiao Jianwei, brother-in-law Qiao San, and son Xia Wuyue knew about this matter.

You can know this news without guessing.

It was definitely Qiao San and Xia Wuyue who were enjoying themselves in Gwangju and accidentally let it slip out!

At this moment, Xia Wenyang was exhausted.

The 260 acres of land on the north bank of the Fuhe River can generate wealth for Wenyang Construction, which is absolutely ten times that of the mere 16 acres of the clothing market, in which the municipal construction accounts for 40% of the shares.

The original plan was to carry out gradual snowball development over five or six years after acquiring the land.

Nourish and grow.

Then when the Taohua River Bridge is built in the future, the Yuejiang Tower area is undoubtedly the best place to build the bridge. The thousand-acre Taohua Villa land parcel that was encircled the year before last has become another golden rooster in the relay.

Such a step would take 3 years for the clothing market with 16 acres, 5 years for Fuhe Academy with 260 acres, and 5-10 years for Peach Blossom Villa with 1,000 acres.

Forget about the brick factory, prefabricated board factory, sand field, quarry, installation and decoration company, brewery under construction, 10,000 acres of tea plantation plan, and other future expansions.

In the next 10 to 15 years, Wenyang Group's main line of development has been finalized.

However, once the land on the north bank of the Fuhe River is lost, Wenyang Construction will face a blank period of about 5 years, and will be in the awkward position of not having any good projects.

Not to mention the huge amount of funds needed to start Peach Blossom Villa in the future.

"Wenyang, don't worry, there is always a way."

Qiu Jinhui handed Xia Wenyang a cup of tea, held his head in front of her with both hands, and gently massaged his temples.

Although she is very playful, she really only surrenders to the man in front of her.

"Let them all disperse!"

Soon, Qiao San and others left, and the lights in the small room in the office were turned off.

Gradually, it seemed that the whole building was shaking slightly.

——

On May 28, the senior high school students in the city held the last mock exam before the college entrance examination.

The next one at the end of June was a free exam, no marks were graded, just topics were discussed in class.

On May 30th, the Dragon Boat Festival, the senior high school students in the city have two days off.

Zeng Xiaoxiao and her mother went to Mingzhu for a trip.

At the Zhuangyuanfu construction site, instead of taking a holiday, they started working overtime to catch up with the progress.

Don't get off work before ten o'clock at night.

It is obviously a high-level gesture to express to New East District their efforts in the construction of mountain cities through practical actions.

This Dragon Boat Festival, brothers are also very busy.

Wu Yue returned to his hometown, and Liu Yihui returned to his mountain nook.

Lao Zheng is going to Zheng City for ten days of pre-examination training, while Fu Qingwei, Yu Yunwei, and Zhu Liang also have their own activities.

Zhao Changan, who really wanted to go out and relax, had no choice but to find Wen Ye, a study fanatic, to see if he was willing to go out and have fun with him.

Drink, swim, eat grilled fish, and celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Do you think I study hard at home during my holidays? During my holidays, even during winter and summer vacations, except at night, I never study during the day!"

Wen Ye spoke so eloquently that he amazed Zhao Changan.

When they entered the city's high school, Zhao Changan, Wen Ye, Chen Jing, and Fu Qingwei were in the key class 3 of the first grade of high school.

And he, Lao Zheng, Yu Yunwei, and Zhu Liang were best friends when they were in Laocheng No. 1 Middle School.

In the second year of high school, Fu Qingwei went to the liberal arts class and got involved with Yu Yunwei and Zhu Liang because of Zhao Changan's relationship.

Zhao Changan was kicked out of the key class and moved to Class 6, Grade 3, in the same class as Lao Zheng.

Got to know Wu Yue, Liu Yihui, and Zhang Shun.

Zhao Changan always knew that Wen Ye had good grades and studied hard, but he didn't expect that this guy didn't work hard at all!

"Do you dare to experience life at the lowest level, pick up rags? Do you want to enter Peach Blossom Lake without buying a ticket?"

Wen Ye looked at Zhao Changan enthusiastically: "I will show you how a savage catches fish and eats pure natural grilled fish in the wild."

Early the next morning, Zhang Lishan found out that Zeng Xiaoxiao was traveling.

As expected, Zhao Changan was no longer asked to come to the construction site to study.

Get up on time at 6 o'clock in the morning, wash up, and follow Wen Ye's request, 'Since you are a rag picker, don't wear school uniforms, wear clean and expensive clothes and shoes, and make yourself look like you are not a rag picker, not the lowest class.'

I found a pair of my oldest clothes and shoes and put them on.

I rode to the compound of the ceramics factory that Wen Ye mentioned, asked a few people, and found Wen Ye's home in a row of brick buildings with sewage flowing across it.

"Wen Ye!"

"Creak~"

Zhao Changan pushed open the dilapidated courtyard door, which was filled with bottles, cartons, foam boards and all kinds of waste.

"Come here, my grandma is cooking rice dumplings. Eat before leaving."

Wen Ye is tying cartons in the yard.

"This is Wen Ye's classmate, come on in and sit down. The room is a mess. Stop being civilized and get a stool for your classmate."

A gray-haired old woman hurriedly walked out of the small kitchen in the yard with a smile that said, "My family is too poor, I'm sorry, don't take it personally."

"Grandma, Wen Ye and I are brothers, so feel free."

Zhao Changan walked over and bundled the cardboard boxes with Wen Ye.

"Your appearance is not bad, but the clothes are still a bit clean, and the cardboard boxes become dirty when you have nothing to do."

Wen Ye looked at Zhao Changan and nodded with a satisfied smile.

"What a good boy."

And Wen Ye's grandma smiled like a flower: "Wait a while and eat rice dumplings."

——

After eating the glutinous rice dumplings, Wen Ye filled a small spoon with water and put four rice dumplings in it for lunch.

The two set out wearing broken straw hats.

At this time, it was already 7:30 in the morning.

"There are a lot of junk in Peach Blossom Lake, so people from our village can only pick it up, but it's too far away and my grandma can't ride there. During my holidays, I go out in the morning and come back at night. I'm lucky enough to pick up more than ten yuan worth of junk a day.

Let’s not rush there and ride slowly; there are not many people going to play at this time, and there is no garbage. It is almost noon which is a good time to make money.

The people who pick up rags in the village are just a few old men and women who have relatives. No young people are willing to do this.

I saw someone drinking Sprite and Coca-Cola, so I followed slowly. One of these aluminum cans sell for 20 cents, which is very expensive. Five of them is a big bowl of hot dry noodles, tsk tsk.”

Along the way, Wen Ye rode a three-wheeler and Zhao Changan rode a three-wheeler and wore a straw hat.

Wen Ye kept explaining his experience to Zhao Changan.

After riding for more than half an hour, the two came to the road along the upper reaches of Taohua River.

At this time, ride about ten miles southwest to the Taohua Lake Scenic Area.

"Have a rest."

Zhao Changan stopped the car, and Wen Ye also stopped.

"I'll tell you a little bit."

Zhao Changan looked at Wen Ye with a gloomy expression.

"What?"
Chapter completed!
